When a Divorce is Necessary.

'Anxious Inquirer" is informed that in Mary
land a married woman cannot marry again with
out obtaining divorce, although she may have
been deserted by her husband six or seven years.
That would be good ground for divorce-three
years separation, with reasonable hope of q
reconciliation, being one of the legal causes for
divorce in this State. 1t is a presumption of law
that d person is dead who has not been heard of
for seven years, and it has been decided that q
woman execute deed as if single whose hus-
band has been absent and not heard from for seven
years. A woman marrying again under such cir
cumstances would not incur the penalties ofbgamy,
but an Enoch Arden case might arise from such
marriage

Bad Gard for Our Veterinary Officials.

Lancaster Pd.) NeU Era.
Maryland, instead of sending her officials into
our State to ferret out cases of opneumonia,
seems at present to have enough to do to look
after her own bit of real estate She has just dis
covered that herd of eighteen COWS in Baltimore
we're suffering from the disease, and that the milk
from the diseased animals was daily sold in the
streets of that city. The authorities of Pennsyl-
vania have traced almost every case of this disease
occurring in our own State to Maryland sources,
and yet not more than three or four months ago
the veterinary officials from that State came into
Pennsylvania and located a certain number q
cases of this disease, which on more thorough ex-
animation turned out not to be pleuro pneumonia
at all. At the same time they had it among them
selves and were unable to detect it. The truth is,
the Maryland officials don't seem to know case
when they gee it. We have no doubt if they were
to ask Secretary Edge in respectful manner he
would kindly lend them the services of our State
Veterinary Surgeon to help them out of their diff
fieu1ties

Democrats "for Revenue Only. "

Phila. Record, Democrat.
Boss rule in Maryland is doing its worst to
bring the Democratic party of that State not only
into reproach but into imminent danger of defeat.
When such men as John X. Cowen revolt, the
supremacy of machine politics in Maryland is
very seriously threatened. But while he declares
against Senator German and his machine in state
politics, Mr.. Cowen does not abandon the nation
al Democratic party. He says the difficulty is
that one year the party in Maryland is for free
trade and the next year it is for protection. The
Germans, Rasins and Higginses do not allow the
harmony that reigns among them to be disturbed
by such question. They are Democrats "for
revenue only"

Evidently the Democrats of Talbot county
are considerably scared up and it has been hard
work to find men willing to accept nominations
on the local ticket. There are now two vacancies
on the ticket caused by declensions, and the con-
yention will be called together again to fill them.

M1- Those who failed to get rid of their trade
dollars at par, if there are any persons who did
fail, have only themselves to blame. The period
long enough and the manner of redemption was
given wide publicity. The fact that only eight
million dollars presented for redemption, how
ever leads to the not unreasonable conclusion that
lot more of these coins will yet be unearthed from
the old stockings and other receptacles in which
they have been hidden, and their owners will be
denouncing the government for not taking them
at their face value. People who don't read the
papers, however, do not deserve any sympathy if
they lose by their negligence, and are not likely to
get any if they present their trade dollars now.

N9-T The farmers and business men of Wash
ington county, without respect to party, have
called public mass meeting, to be held in Hagers-
town, to adopt measures to get full vote at the
coming election against the call for constitu-
tional convention. The Hagerstown Mail, the
leading Democratic newspaper of Western Mary
land, has taken issue with its party managers on
this subject and vigorously opposes constitu-
tional convention because of the heavy expense
that it will entail upon the taxpayers of the State,
and for other reasons. The Mail says: "It is
surprising to see some of our sensible contempor-
aries urging as a reason for the call that new
constitution is required to increase the basis of
taxation. They know-as any one who reads the
constitution must know-that is does not exempt
single dollars worth of property of any kind,
whether corporate or individual, from taxation.-
Upon the contrary, it absolutely requires every
one to pay taxes according to actual worth in
real and personal property. If this has not been
done it is the fault of our Representatives, who
are fully invested with the power, and more than
this, are required to do it. In this, as in other
respects, the constitution has been disregarded or
violated"
